Chapter 127: The Mysterious Forces of Lotus County

"Son, when did you learn to brag?" Liu Mei asked with a smile. There was no doubt about it; she was definitely his biological mother.

The next day, under Chen Yang's instruction, Zhou Tianhao returned to Yunzhou. However, Murong Xue'er and Yin Tianxue did not go back.

"Are you two planning to freeload off me?"

...

Clearly, she had overestimated her importance in Song Cheng’s heart. He was as indifferent to her as could be, his face expressionless and his eyes as calm as a stagnant pool.

Especially since the tribute was such an obvious display of debauchery and indulgence—a rare treasure fit for a decadent tyrant—how could the Great Shang monarch, renowned for his quick wit and sharp perception, possibly fail to see through it?

Before she came to see Li Changfeng, Chen Qishan had presented a medicinal pill to her grandfather, who treated it like a precious find, claiming that such a pill could only exist in the heavens.

A burst of celestial music rang out, immediately signaling to everyone that the Primordial Lord of Heaven, leader of the Chan Sect, had arrived. At the same time, they all could not help but gaze toward the horizon, welcoming him with the reverent eyes of all living beings.

Her face flushed red as she recalled the awkward incident from earlier, and she picked up a throw pillow and tossed it at Yang Chaoran’s head.

"No, no, I'm old, so I don't need much sleep. You are still young, at the age where you love to sleep, so why are you up so early?" the old lady said with a smile.

Then, before the eyes of Yu Yuan and the countless Great Shang troops at Sishui Pass, he whipped up a whirlwind. His round, chubby body sat down, and with a reach of his hand, he snatched up the wish-granting Qiankun bag containing Tu Xingsun and flew straight toward the gate of Sishui Pass.

Yun Hua calmed her emotions and sat down, saying, "Tell me the truth. After returning to the Shi residence, what did you say and do that led Shi Miyuan to send Qin Guoxi and trigger the Huzhou Uprising?" Shanhuru wept, "I dare not say; if I tell you, you will surely kill me."

"My son was terrified at the time, and Hongling called everyone away. However, I have already sent men to warn them; if they dare to speak nonsense, I will have them killed," Xiao Ziming said.

"So my second brother has had such legendary experiences! It seems he is destined to become famous throughout the martial arts world," Yang Zhan said proudly.

The fall of the Temple and Huangyan not only threw the surrounding counties and towns into a collective panic, but also caused the atmosphere in Xiangyang City, located only eighty miles away, to turn suddenly tense.

However, Zheng Ci did not expect that before the news of imperial aid could arrive, he would receive another piece of shocking news: the imperial court intended to abolish the fiefdoms.

Countless battle spirits converged to form the greatest character for "War" between heaven and earth, hanging above Ye Qi’s head, pushing the sky far away from the ground. No one could tell how vast or heavy it was.

Sitting on the side, Xibiao, who had been silent the entire journey, felt his throat move involuntarily as he stared at that suitcase full of cash.

Le Yiyang and Lai Jiyun were just about to board the ship when they suddenly heard a clamor behind them. The two turned around in surprise to see over a dozen people dressed as villagers running toward them in a panic. Seeing them approach aggressively, Lai Jiyun instinctively reached for the Thousand-Form Sword at his waist.

Auntie Zhong’s words today had touched the softest part of his heart. In his past life, he had been nearly thirty and had not yet left behind any children before inexplicably disappearing from that world.

However, Ye Bai was a Nether Lord and possessed one skill more than Ning Hai: flight. Seeing Ning Hai’s Yaoyue Sword shooting toward him, Ye Bai did not choose to block it, but instead opted for a simpler method: flying.

Yet, this was also hard to predict. Life is impermanent; for the three of them to have experienced all this together, how could it be anything other than fate?

Moreover, Zheng Dian’s archery expertise, his talent for archery, and his Level 2 "Rain of Arrows" tactic all provided a certain boost to the lethality of his troops.
